The Parkinson's "cure" in India

  Dr. Dinesh Garg achieved reknown in the United States by founding a
private cord blood bank, LifeCord USA, which turned out to be a mailing
address with no lab. (No relation to other banks named "Lifecord" in
Gainesville, FL, Graz, Austria, and Korea.)   After that scam was exposed,
he fled the country for India, where the Times of India  reported that Dr.
Garg has "cured" Parkinson's patients with cord blood transplants.  The
report claims that brain cells "derived by modification of discarded
umbilical cord blood stem cells" were infused into the cerebrospinal fluid
while cooling the brain and spinal cord.  The Indian news reports have
been repeated uncritically by the American media.
